Busch observed an extraordinary interaction between these species.
"The dolphins were swimming right in front of the whales, and appeared to lead them to the (bait fish)," he said.
As Busch's drone soared overhead, he witnessed the humpback whales lunging out of the water together three different times, gobbling up tons of bait.
The fish being feasted on were Atlantic menhaden, also known as bunker fish.
